The salty fish lady just wants to get over the wall

Chapter 183 Chapter 183: Bring Xiao Xixi to Sister Wen
Wen Nianruan and Pei Yiqing went to the private room on the second floor and ordered some food and drinks by the way.

When Wen Tingzhou arrived, the food and wine had just arrived.

"Love."

The first thing Wen Tingzhou saw when he opened the door was Pei Yiqing, and couldn't help calling out, Pei Yiqing blushed even more shyly.

Wen Tingzhou looked back and saw Wen Nianruan, coughed lightly: "Fourth sister."

"Second brother, why are you so embarrassed, Miss Pei has already told me about your affairs."

Wen Nianruan joked and said, "Second Brother, hurry up and sit down."

Wen Tingzhou came over and sat next to Pei Yiqing.

Wen Nianruan could see that Wen Tingzhou really fell in love with Pei Yiqing, he was not as indifferent as before, and the eyes that looked at Pei Yiqing became softer.

The two are indeed a good match, and Wen Nianruan sincerely wishes them well.

Wen Nianruan raised his wine glass and said with a smile, "Congratulations to Second Brother for his promotion."

"Thank you, Fourth Sister." Wen Tingzhou took a sip from his glass.

Wen Nian softly said: "I heard from Miss Pei that Second Brother plans to move out of the Hou Mansion?"

"Well, I will prepare for the affairs of the Hou's Mansion after I finish my official affairs in the past two days."

"If the second brother moves out of the Hou Mansion, where will he live?"

Wen Tingzhou said: "Let's live in Guanglu Temple for a while, and it will be convenient to deal with political affairs every day. When I have accumulated some money in the future, I am starting to buy a mansion."

Wen Nianruan frowned: "It's convenient to live in Guanglu Temple and do government affairs, but the food and accommodation conditions there are not very good."

Naturally, the living conditions of a fifth-rank official would not be very good.

Wen Tingzhou smiled: "But it's better than Hou Fu."

Wen Nian was soft and dumb.

Wen Tingzhou's life in the Hou Mansion these years is no better than that of a servant. If compared with the conditions of the court, the court is indeed better.

Wen Nian said softly: "Why don't I get some silver taels for my second brother, and just buy a mansion right now."

Wen Tingzhou shook his head: "Thank you, Fourth Sister, for your kindness. I still think it would be better to exchange my hard work for the fruits of labor."

Pei Yiqing said softly to Wen Nian: "You don't need to help him, it's not like you don't know your second brother's temper, he's not the kind of person who likes 'food that comes from nothing'."

She likes Wen Tingzhou, because of his upright temperament, he will not be greedy for any cheap things, and will rely on his own efforts to get what he wants.

"If you don't rely on your own efforts, how can you marry a wife and raise children in the future, and how can you give them happiness."

When he said this, Wen Tingzhou looked at Pei Yiqing with tender eyes.

Wen Tingzhou came from childhood, so he knows that many things are hard-won, and he knows how to cherish them better.

Moreover, he didn't want to wait until he had a child and let his child go through the hardships he suffered when he was a child, so he will work harder now to let his wife and children live a prosperous life in the future.

Although Pei Yiqing is backed by Zuoxiang's mansion and his family is rich, Wen Tingzhou has never thought of relying on Pei Yiqing to climb up the ladder, nor has he ever thought of allowing Zuoxiang to support him in the officialdom. He prefers to be down-to-earth, One step at a time.

Knowing Wen Tingzhou's temperament, Wen Nianruan didn't force it, and asked with a smile: "Does Master Zuo and Madam know about the matter of Second Brother and Miss Pei?"

Pei Yiqing shook her head: "I haven't told my parents yet, I think I'll tell my parents after your second brother stabilizes."

Now Wen Tingzhou is busy with official affairs, she doesn't want to burden him any more, and it won't be too late to introduce him to his parents after his affairs are settled.

Pei Yiqing is a reasonable girl, no matter what she does, she will do it after careful consideration, Wen Nianruan is very relieved of her.

Wen Nianruan asked again: "Second Brother wants to move out of the Hou Mansion, what will the father and mother say?"

If he moves out of the Hou's Mansion, he will be separated from the Hou's Mansion in the future.

Wen Tingzhou sneered: "Now that I have Aunt Meng, they won't care about anything about me anymore, and they wish I could leave the Hou's mansion as soon as possible."

When mentioning Aunt Meng, Wen Nianruan reacted for a moment before remembering that it was Meng Yinger.

That's right, after having Meng Yinger, the Hou Mansion will rely on her stomach, and Li Huachun and Wen Decheng will no longer care about Wen Tingzhou.

Meng Yinger is still young, and she has a lot of opportunities to have a son.

After giving birth to her son, she will be handed over to Li Huachun to raise her, and she will never pay any attention to Wen Tingzhou.

While talking, the three of them were eating, and Wen Tingzhou took good care of Pei Yiqing and kept picking up food for her.

The three of them hadn't had a few mouthfuls of food when someone knocked on the door, Yushuang opened the door, and Xiao Xixi walked in.

Wen Nianruan was stunned for a moment: "Xixi, why are you here?"

"My brother sent me here."

After Xiao Xixi finished speaking, Wen Nianruan was about to ask which brother it was, when an emerald green figure walked in.

Wen Nianruan frowned, looked back at Pei Yiqing and Wen Tingzhou, their expressions froze.

Xiao Yi's reputation in the imperial capital is very bad, and most people don't like to approach him, mainly because they are afraid of accidentally offending him, and the consequences will be overwhelming.

Xiao Yi looked at Wen Nianruan, with a smile in his eyes: "Xixi said she wanted to find Sister Wen, so I sent her here."

Xiao Xixi slapped her big eyes lightly, her brother said the opposite, he wanted to find Sister Wen, so he pulled her over.

Xiao Yi walked forward and sat down slowly, squinting his eyes and looking at Wen Nianruan, with provocation hidden in his eyes: "If Concubine Wen doesn't mind, can I add a pair of chopsticks to my master?"

He sat down, and Wen Nianruan still had the nerve to say something he didn't mind.

Glaring at Xiao Yi secretly, Wen Nianruan asked Yushuang to get another two sets of bowls and chopsticks.

As soon as Xiao Yi appeared, the atmosphere changed, Pei Yiqing and Wen Tingzhou talked less, and only Xiao Xixi was serious about cooking.

Wen Tingzhou picked up a piece of fish for Pei Yiqing, and also for Wen Nianruan, "Simei is weak, please make up more."

Wen Nian smiled softly: "Thank you, Second Brother."

Xiao Yi glanced at the piece of fish in her bowl, and lightly lowered his eyelids to hide the gloom in his eyes.

Wen Nianruan picked up the fish and was about to eat it when a big hand quietly touched her thigh from under the table, his fingertips brushed across her leg lightly, Wen Nianruan's body trembled violently, the fish in his hand was missing Steady, fall to the ground.

Xiao Yi on the side looked at her with curled lips: "Why is Concubine Wen shaking suddenly? Is she sick?"

Pei Yiqing and Wen Tingzhou also looked up, their faces were worried, Pei Yiqing asked: "Is Nianruan uncomfortable?"

"No, it seems that I was bitten by a small bug just now."

Wen Nian's soft face did not change his expression, he grabbed the big hand on his leg with one hand, and pinched it hard with his fingertips.

Xiao Yi didn't speak, but narrowed his eyes slightly.

Seeing that Wen Nianruan didn't feel uncomfortable, Pei Yiqing and Wen Tingzhou continued to eat quietly, with Xiao Yi around, they didn't dare to talk too much.

Wen Nianruan narrowed his eyes, and looked at Xiao Yi with a half-smile, Xiao Yi looked at her with raised eyebrows, and the corners of his lips curled slightly.

Wen Nianruan took off the embroidered shoes, put the little feet hidden under the table on Xiao Yi's, and slowly moved up.

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes suddenly, and the color of his eyes became darker.

Wen Nianruan blinked his fox eyes, looked at the empty bowl in front of him, and pretended to be puzzled: "Your Majesty Ling Zhao doesn't eat food? Isn't it to your liking?"

"Don't worry, I'll have something else I want to eat later."

Xiao Yi looked at Wen Nianruan with a faint smile, Wen Nianruan's heart was trembling, and he wanted to retract his foot, but Xiao Yi suddenly caught her between his legs, preventing her from moving a single point.

It's over, it's overdone now.
